Informed improves application debuggability by:
- Logging which methods were called.
- Aggregating useful data, such as the result of the call, keyword arguments provided, or the result of related instance methods.
- Exposing when a method starts and finishes.
Informed does not:
- Format logs. It provides a hash to the logger you provide, and it's up to you to format your logs in a useful manner. This will depend on what log aggregation system you are using.
- Store logs. You will need to configure your applications logger correctly to ensure logs will actually reach your log aggregator.
- Provide analytics or performance tuning data. Your log aggregator may be good at that though!
Informed is intended as a cross-language tool. The language and feature matrix is as follows:
| Ruby | Python | Node | BrowserJS | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Log calls | Yes | Yes | No | No |
| Multiple loggers | No | No | No | No |
| Filter out data by name | No | No | No | No |
See your languages README for usage and installation information.
